We divide 726226 by 61
Our goal is to divide 726226 by 61.

Moving on to step 1:
The number 61 fits into 7 0 times, leaving a remainder of 7.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 7, we get 7.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 7, then repeat: 72 / 61

On to step 2:
When dividing 72 by 61, we get 1 with a remainder of 11.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1.0
Deduct 61 from 72 and we're left with 11.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 11 and continue: 116 / 61

Advancing to step 3:
If we divide 116 by 61, we get 1 and a remainder of 55.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 11.0
If we take 61 away from 116, we end up with 55.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 55 and continue: 552 / 61

Going ahead to step 4:
When dividing 552 by 61, we get 9 with a remainder of 3.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 119.0
If we subtract 549 from 552, we get 3.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 3, then repeat: 32 / 61

Moving on to step 5:
61 can be fit into 32 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 32.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1190.0
Subtract 0 from 32 to get 32.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 32, then carry on: 326 / 61

Advancing to step 6:
326 divided by 61 is 5 with a remainder of 21.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 11905.0
Subtract 305 from 326 to get 21.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 210, and continue the process.

Step 7:
When dividing 210 by 61, we get 3 with a remainder of 27.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 11905.3
Deduct 183 from 210 and we're left with 27.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 270, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
The number 61 fits into 270 4 times, leaving a remainder of 26.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 11905.34
Subtracting 244 from 270 leaves us with 26.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 260, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
If we divide 260 by 61, we get 4 and a remainder of 16.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 11905.344
Deduct 244 from 260 and we're left with 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

The final result is 11905.344 with a remainder of 0.0016.
